Hmm, I liked Miranda as second fire team leader. Hearing her voice through the radio... me gusta! :lol:

Hmm speaking of radio- funny voice glitch: take Miranda to fight the Occulus. After it's done Miranda will "radio you from the bridge"... even though she's right next to you:lol:

@CrutchCricket and o Ventus

My Shepard's a protective one. My first run I lost Jack's loyalty because of the fight with Miranda, but I loved Jack and brought her along with me not knowing she could die in the end! Oh no!

Hmm, I liked Miranda as second fire team leader. Hearing her voice through the radio... me gusta! 


Of course. I rationalize it like this. Shepard and Miranda both know she's an incredibly skilled leader. Hell, that's her job. With her combat skill set and ability to command loyalty through experience, and we're talking someone who's second only to Shepard in leadership. In my opinion, there isn't anyone more suited to the job. Garrus is high up on the list, but Miranda is still #1 choice. It doesn't mean he doesn't worry for her, only that he knows that she knows what she's doing, and that she's good at it.

Oh, and, dat audio effect when she talks via radio comm.

Glad to see you picked apart (See, disregarded) the other 90% of my post.

My point about the Cain was humor. Why are people so blind to that? Even then, a Cain 1 hit killed a Destroyer, it probably wouldn't be too much of a stretch to outfit ground forces with them en masse and go to town against Harbinger and his minions.


I did not see the point in speculating about the strength of Karlos when we don't have actual numbers, stating that the current cycle doesn't have a weapon capable of scarring a planet or questioning the power of the quarian ships when compared to, say, a turian fleet. As far as I can tell, the quarians did not have Thanix Cannons.
But yeah, that's basically it. Also, that Hades Cannon could have been a non-sapient construct thus, making it a lot more fragile than an actual Destroyer since it took a lot more of firepower to take out the one guarding the Conduit.

@bold- You seem to forget that the Hades Cannon *is* a Destroyer.

Why would it matter if the quarian fleet is as strong as another? They still have hundreds if not thousands of ships. There's a reason the zerg rush is a valid strategy. Quantity is just as useful as quality, depending on how you handle it.

Kalros, even though the largest maw, is still an overgrown worm. EDI says something to this same effect right after the Shroud mission.

My point still stands, they could have studied the MA cannon that destroyed the derelict Reaper, or the krogan cannons on Tuchanka. IIRC, they blew that Cerberus Cruiser to itty-bitty pieces with a single shot. Hackett says himself, "Cerberus handed us the advantage", they just failed to utilize it.

When Miranda was the fire team leader for the first time in my games, I was so nervous! I whispering under my breath "Don't you dare die on me, damn it!" I was expecting that Jack would say something catty like "It's only because you're sleeping together" when I picked Miranda even after her objections.

Everything about Miri is "dat" worthy.... :lol:

Where it is that stated? It has a different design, it could be a non-sapient construct.
It is, without a doubt, weaker than other Destroyers.

Why would it matter if the quarian fleet is as strong as another? They still have hundreds if not thousands of ships. There's a reason the zerg rush is a valid strategy. Quantity is just as useful as quality, depending on how you handle it.

Sometimes, the quality is so superior that the quantity does not matter. Evidence, Sovereign taking on two fleets at once.
If the entire quarian fleet combined it is not as strong as a single turian dreadnought...well, you can tell where I'm going with this.

Kalros, even though the largest maw, is still an overgrown worm. EDI says something to this same effect right after the Shroud mission.

An extremelly powerful worm, it could be capable of breaking a Reaper's plating. And it had the field advantage.
The Destroyer should have flown.

My point still stands, they could have studied the MA cannon that destroyed the derelict Reaper,


Cerberus found the MA cannon, remember? And they did not want to destroy the Reapers.

or the krogan cannons on Tuchanka. IIRC, they blew that Cerberus Cruiser to itty-bitty pieces with a single shot. Hackett says himself, "Cerberus handed us the advantage", they just failed to utilize it.

The advantage in that system. The cannons are probrably not that strong compared to a dreadnought.

1. It's physically constructed from a Destroyer. Go and take a look at it.

2. Sovereign was battling the Citadel fleet and the 5th fleet, not the entire human armada. Both of those fleets were also engaged with the geth. Not a good example.

3. Except you never see it do anything. It just tackles the Destroyer and buries it. If that Destroyer wasn't brain-dead, it'd have been flying from the start. Hell, all it had to do was destroy the Shroud, since the Shroud was the only thing keeping Tuchanka's atmosphere in check. No atmoshpere = dead krogan.

4. Yeah, except this was before TIM went bat-**** insane indoctrinated.

5. That doesn't, in any way mean they can't be scaled down or updated to be fitted on dreadnaughts. They took Sovereign's gun, scaled it down, and put it on a frigate, after all.

I expected soemthing similar, admittedly, especially given Jack and Miranda's prior confrontation.

And yes, everything is "Dat X" worthy. I  was hoping to start that as a running gag.

Indeed! Imperfection is tossed on its head in regards to Miranda.

But for the sake of comedy, let's say yes.

I think she's naturally rather dominant. Matt's more than happy to acquiesce as long as he's not functioning as Commander Shepard.

Too bad that the rest of the "romance scene" sucks (fade to black and Shepard outside of the room).

One of the things I wanted for the romance was already denied by the devs (the pillow talk). And it's doesnt seems they care enough for the sidelined character to give them something in the extended cut. As far as I know that DLC will try to explain the endings.

Just re finished Sanctuary. My god some elements are fustrating like when we see the vid with kai leng attacking Miranda, shepard doesn't sound alerted at all. He is like "damn well i hope she is ready". Come on, if you see the women you love being attacked by the guy who defeated you, i'd be a little bit more concerned. And we can't get like a small kiss between them at the aftermath, come on it's that hard is it?. And playing the Cronos station is hard. It just feels logical that MIranda should be there. You should be given a choice between EDI and Miranda. Come on MIranda wouldn't pass up the opportunity to see the illusive man. It feels like she is "you're going to attack the illusive man you say, well take pictures for me". She was the second in command, it simply doesn't make sense she isn't coming. I doubt they can fix this via any dlc and it's quite a shame. The only thing i can hope for Miranda and Shep is a reunion scene but then again my hopes dont go high :(
